Edges of Darkness

Ok, I'm taking a lot on faith watching this one- Netfilx says it's a vampire movie.

So far, fifteen minutes in, it's a Zombie Apocalypse. In fact one of the characters uses that phrase.

OH.

It's crazy, but the character who said "Zombie Apocalypse" was a vampire. There's a pair of them, husband and wife, hunkered down while the world is going to Hell.

Literally- Edges of Darkness is three separate stories linked geographically and one of them involves the Anti-Christ; another is about a writer in an apartment who's got a life-force sucking power adapter for his computer.

I don't write these things- I just watch them.
Some of these I watch so you don't have to. Like this one.

The vampire plot was... interesting. The husband has kidnapped a girl to serve as their food source, keeping her alive in a symbiotic relationship. Of course, things go wrong.
But he makes a statement that I found intriguing in a cross-genre movie: "This should have been our world."
